Here at Roger Williams University, there is a large network of campus events put on by various clubs and organizations. Inter Class Council is one of those unique organizations!
According to the Class of 2026 class cabinet, consisting of Charlotte Beaton, Cooper Hughes, Mia Padula, and Sonny Rebeiro, ICC plans events and fundraisers for specific class years whether you are in the class of 2025, 26, 27, or 28.
The Class of 2028 Cabinet, Jack Tagliamonte, Leticia Lopes, Megan Wiener, and Bree Killion, said that as freshmen, “The 2028 cabinet is unique because freshmen are new to the school and are still getting accustomed to the college schedule, so we need to work very closely with our class to understand what they want to see and what we can do to make their first year as great as it can be.”
Additionally, the cabinets said ICC looks to build community within RWU by planning events including Commencement Ball and Junior Semi for upperclassmen as well as other events throughout the year.
The Class of 2026 said some of their favorite events to put on have been a basketball tournament and Valentine’s Day fundraiser which both were successful.
The Class of 2028 has not put on an event yet but is looking forward to planning a holiday event or a freshman formal and that their first event plans are in the works!
ICC is unique from other clubs and organizations on campus because of its similarity to student government in high school with the aspects of event planning, said the cabinet.
Additionally, ICC caters to classes in their events which are unique for each year which help to create an engaging environment. For example, the Class of 2027 recently organized an apple picking getaway on Sept. 28th. Also, there are many senior events organized by the Class of 2025 including Senior Kick Off which this year was on Sept. 5, and more activities to come throughout the year such as a Pivotal Brewing getaway on Nov. 14th, Commencement Ball and Senior Barbecue in May.
ICC is also responsible for planning Spirit Week, which this year, occurred Oct. 14th-18th. Some of this year’s Spirit Week activities included Spirit Week Kick Off on Oct 14th, Men’s and Women’s Spirit Soccer Games against Endicott College on Oct. 15th, a Murder Mystery Night on Oct. 16th, Sculpting Roger Spirit on Oct. 17th, and Piece of Bristol on Oct. 18th.
Also, the class of 2026 emphasized the importance of participating in fundraisers for class events as the more money that is raised through the fundraiser, the less a junior semi and commencement ball ticket will be for participants.
“ICC works very hard and we care about all of the students on campus! We try to make everyone feel engaged and welcome at all of our events,” said the Class of 2028 cabinet.
The Class Cabinets of 2025 and 2027 and Executive Council members were also reached out to for comments but did not respond.
